25Live Reports Supports Both Standard and Custom Reports

Standard Reports

Series25 includes more than 130 standard reports that you can partially customize with searches or fully customize with the 25Live Interactive Report Designer. Standard reports are organized into categories.

  • Your Starred Reports
  • Event Reports
  • Location Reports
  • Resources Reports
  • Other Reports (These include contact reports, reports that span categories, and other special reports.)

You can view examples and descriptions of standard reports on the 25Live Standard Report Reference page.

Custom Reports

25Live includes a custom report tool at no additional cost, the 25Live Interactive Report Designer. You can create fully interactive reports based on virtually any of the fields stored in the Series25 database with features such as drill-down and drill-to, as well as web controls for filtering, sorting, and navigation. These custom reports or invoices can be fully integrated into 25Live using standard system functionality then exported in a number of formats for distribution to both internal and external clients. In addition, any of the system's numerous standard reports can also be used as a template or starting point in the 25Live Interactive Report Designer to create customized versions with added logos or changed report elements.

A quick start guide for the 25Live Interactive Report Designer, full instructions for the Designer, and a guide to integrating custom reports are available in the Exclusive Customer Resources section. Once integrated, custom reports can be run from this Reports application.
